i HATE being late.

i HATE rushing to school in shock and worriedness.

i HATE having to make up some stupid excuse on the bus.

i HATE having to flag a taxi and i HATE handing over the twelve dollars.

i HATE handing over my ezlink card to the counsellers to have my name written down.

i HATE having to face the teacher in charge.

i HATE receiving that late coming form.

I HATE GETTING DEMERIT POINTS AND SCHOOL SERVICE HOURS.


below is a scene taken down from this morning:


[while giving out late coming forms]

teacher: "and girl, where's your nametag?"

me: "oh."

[taking it out and putting it on]

teacher:"and why is it so colourful huh?"

me:"..."

teacher:"why is your nametag so special?"

me:"..."

[looks down in terror]

teacher:"stay back later and explain to me."

me: ?!#$%&*??!

i was like, hello? teacher? this is not the first time im late! you've seen my nametag for at least 4 times before?!!

so when the late comers were dismissed, i sort of stayed back for a while.

and then while someone else was explaining her reasons for coming late...

i was thinking...

why isnt she attending to me? hmm im sure she doesnt mean what she said just now. im sure she has forgotten about me. im sure it wouldnt really matter if im not here. so why am i here?

so somehow, in that quick few seconds, i managed to convince myself that my presence was not really necessary and....

yes.

u got it.

i sneaked off while she was talking to others.

and i did it with a thumping heart, half expecting her to say something like "GIRL, STOP!" while i was brisking walking off.

but miraculously.

i still managed to escape.

that was about the most quick and terrifying on-the-spot decision i've ever made.

and the consequences is that i'd better make sure i dont be late again.

and i seriously need to pray she does not recognise my face.


RESOLUTION FOR REST OF THE YEAR:

DO NOT BE LATE FOR THE REMAINING 3 MONTHS.

thorugh a series of unfortunate events, i have been forced to come to the insulting conclusion that eyu and i look alike.


event one:
i was at popular one fine day when i heard a cry of "EYU!" from the back and turned around...

only to find two of eyu's classmates staring back at me. and one of them asked "are u eyu's sister?" which i replied yes to.


event two:
my junior yann rong said she saw me outside the stuff room on another fine day and called "yiwei!"...

only to find that it was eyu, to whom she asked "are u yiwei's sister?"

i really wonder how she could be so sure when i dont think she has really seen eyu before.


event three:
during eyu's eng speech training lesson, mr tang asked her:

"do u have a sister ewe who graduated?"

and she said i was in sec 3.

so another time when chinese drama was waiting for the stage after mulan,
mr tang saw me and asked :

"do u have a sister in sec one?"

when i replied yes, he said :

"AHA! THAT'S THE ONE."

which left me in a state of confusion then.


event four:
eyu said on one more fine day in school during the fire drill,

li wen juan laoshi (who had taught me in sec 1) saw her and asked whether she was yiwei.

and after some clarification,

my mistaken identity was finally restored.


event five:
on a not-so-fine day when eyu and i were late for the third time,

we were waiting outside the quadrangle and listening to the morning announcements when a teacher walked past us.

when she then slowed down her pace and took some steps back,

my heart almost stopped.

i was desperately praying...

...please dont recognise eyu and me for being late again...

but instead, she asked:

"are the both of you twins?"

to which i shook my head and said no.

"really? but the both of you look alike leh."

well well as expected someday i would be late again.

but i didnt expect so soon. the fourth time in a year? that would come with 2 demerit points and some hrs of school service.

so u can imagine our shock when my dad woke eyu and i up at 7.30 on thurs. we rushed for school and did not take a taxi in the end cos my dad said it wasnt much use since we were already late.

so we took the bus. and on the way eyu and i invented an elaborate and detailed excuse of stomachache, diarrhoea and vomiting and traffic jam and stuff.

but in the end the intelligent me decided to just sneak up to class and pretend to be absent instead of having another late record.

my plan was working rather well and eyu and i were approaching the staircase when.....

across the other side of the staircase bk hollered (in chinese of course) "YIWEI! YOU'RE COMING FOR LESSONS NOW AH!"

i stopped dead in my tracks and wished i could have disappeared.

but of course i didnt. so she asked me the reason i was late and while i was deciding to let me or my sis have stomachache, eyu said "both of us didnt hear the alarm ring."

well. so much for all the carefully planned details.

so bk was shocked and told me that i had been late many times and go see her during recess or sth bahz. i was too distraught to listen properly.

wellwell. when i went to class i realised from my friends my stupid act of coming to school in the first place.

and during clit lessons, jialu said sth about bk saying our class very funny, one forgot to bring bag to school, and i was wondering whether she'll mention my latecoming when lin lao shi said...

"yiwei ah, heard u come to school one hr late today ah?"

i didnt know rumours spread so fast among teachers.

so meixuan said i dunnid to take latecoming form liao. the whole school probably already knew.

but in the end i still did not report to g.o for my latecoming form...so does that mean im counted as absent still?

i swear when i get a new hp i'll set 4 alarms than the current 3 alarms.

today an unexpected nosebleed struck me while i was in the toilet before going home.

i loudly announced in the cubicle,"i have something important to announce..."

and i opened the door to say i had a nosebleed, only to find that weilin and eyu had escaped out of the toilet.

and after that weilin said my tissue wasnt enough and went back to the toilet and pulled out CHUNKS of toilet paper.

as an environmentally friendly person, i of course stopped her before she killed more trees.

i can only say that thank goodness i didnt stop her that early.

so i went to the bus stop and waited for 961 with long pieces of tissue trailing behind me.

thankfully my nosebleed sort of stopped after a while and my INGENIUS eyu suggested i sneeze my nose to get rid of the remaining blood.

and very UNFORTUNATELY i listened to her advice and sneezed.....

therefore activating my blood vessels and causing a fresh flow of blood gushing down my nose.

and even more unfortunately 961 came and we boarded, with the whole bottom half of my face covered in chunks of toilet paper.

then my nose began to bleed really badly and it just couldnt stop.

and...

i had no idea a nosebleed would be so attention attracting.

people started asking whether i had a nosebleed, and there was this auntie who told me to tie a knot on my fourth finger using my rubber band to stop the bleed.

my sis and i were using scrunchies....so....

of course dear weilin sacrifaced her rubber band for my finger.
causing her for the whole time using her hand to hold her hair, since she refused to let it down.

and a nice indian man gave me his seat due to my nosebleed.
and so i sat down and with advice from the two ah mahs in front, tilted my head backwards...

causing all the blood to flow down my throat, and i therefore swallowed a few mouthfuls of blood.

all i can say is it doesnt taste that nice.

and soon after the huge chunks of toilet papers was soaked with blood. lucky i din stop weilin too soon from taking more toilet paper. at least the trees had died for a meaningful purpose.

and after that people all around offered me their scraps and pieces and packets of tissues, and on top of my bag was a disgusting mixture and blood and tissues and toilet rolls.

oh. theres something remarkable about this whole nosebleed episode.
throughout the whole long messy process, i managed not to get a single stain on my pure white blouse and skirt.

ah.

what a nosebleed.

youth day and racial harmony day celebration today...the whole sch danced shava shava then had an crazy auction where ppl spent 80 dollars plus for a photo. then we went to prepare our stalls....3o6 sold popcorn, jellies, muahji (spelt like this?) , marshmellow and banana choco dip, fishballs sotongballs and nuggets.
heres what we sold:

i was in the last shift so me and sihui went to look around for stuff to buy and eat. i spent 2 dollars on a test tube with glitter, 2 dollars on a stressball and bought other stuff to eat. in the meantime i was crazily snapping down rubbish photos and i managed to reach 154 by the end of the day.

hanyan promoting her stressballs to us

when sihui and i went for our shift, everyone was either out of money or too full to buy. so we had to decrease the price frm $1 per pkt of jelly and $1.50 per pkt of popcorn to one dollar for 3 pkts of jelly and 1 pkt of popcorn, or 4 pkts of jelly. but even with this heavenly price, we still had to go around harassing and pleading ppl to buy. haishhh. i pity poor baona who wasted all her money beforehand at our stall when she could get 7 more pkts of jelly if she waited for a few more hrs. ha.

while promoting our popcorn and jellies to some ppl, sihui and i saw those cute soft toys sold at only 2 dollars, 3 dollars cheaper when we last saw them. so after a thick skin bargain with chen yang, we managed to get 2 soft toys for 3.50. haha.

soft toys we bought. my teddy is own the left! sihui's pink horse is at the top left hand corner

oh and 3o6 raised the highest sum in sec 3 level! we raised $395! woohooo~ yayy 2o4 got the highest in level last yr too! feel proud of both my classes. =)

well today after cca rehearsal, me hong and bao went to j8 to eat and take neos. we happily posed and decorated the neos in the mo li hua machine and when the results came out, we very conveniently squatted on the floor examining the neos for a long long time b4 making the intelligent choice of cutting it up. then after cutting up the neos, we stood there continuing to examine the neos. under hong and bao's atrocious story, the nice mo li hua machine that hl and i liked became a haunted and cursed machine that not only twisted but also made body parts disappear. here are 2 of the neos:


too bright i tink.


the color of the smiley is digusting and theres a tiny pink and purplish thing on my hand, proving the hauntedness of the machine.


the other 2 neoprints will be currently unavailable in my blog due to hong and bao's immense threats.

well after wasting so much time with neoprints, we realised that we would be late for the concert so we took a taxi to hci. and on the taxi, bao was forcing me and hong to wear seatbelts, emphasizing that it was by law, pointing to the little poster at the side of the taxi which said: "please use the seatbelts by law". well so i had no choice but let bao put the seatbelt over me while hong refused to be manipulated by bao. but bao was finally able to fasten seatbelts onto hong after a bit of persuasion from the taxi driver about fines. hmmm i tink the driver was highly amused and entertained by us the jolly ny girls. well and when we reached hci we couldnt find our way to the drama centre so asked for directions from a friendly security guard who kindly suggested us to walk on the pavement instead of hurting the poor grass.

oh and i learnt an important lesson from peggy during the intermission of the concert. i realised that its time i moved on to wearing shoes with shoelaces. i've never really thought about this until peggy pointed it out to me did i realise that i am about perhaps the only person in ny who still wear shoes with double straps. come to think of it, i dun rmb ever wearing a shoelaced shoe in my entire life. how's that. =)
